Keaveney makes Gilmore see ‘50 Shades of Red’

It could be the publishing sensation of the autumn, Fifty Shades of Red — the torrid tale of an often tortuous relationship between two powerful men battling for domination of the Labour Party.

Rebel former party chairman Colm Keaveney is to write a tell-all book that could “rock Labour to its foundations”.

The Galway East TD is believed to be in negotiations with two publishers regarding the record of his turbulent time battling Tánaiste Eamon Gilmore — with a possible title playfully echoing the 50 Shades of Grey saga.
